Just learning about the lost of BJ after being away from ARTEX for years. She ALWAYS made me feel welcome and part of the NSC ARTEX safety team. She will always be remembered...she is a true legend!

From the very first time I met BJ, she made me feel like we'd been lifelong friends. I cannot count the times she bailed me out of one problem or another. I cherished our time together as we traveled the globe on behalf of the NSC and Air Transport Section (ARTEX). So many adventures, so many memories. Good thoughts to Bob and BJ's family.

Prayers to you Rob and the entire family. Had the pleasure to travel to many parts of the world with BJ. The last time was a very long trip to Korea and Australia. BJ had a way to keep the 30 hour plane ride entertaining. Nothing but class!! She will be greatly missed. A true credit to the HSE field.

BJ always had a smile and a joke to warm your heart. She was first to ask you about yourself and your family and always wanted to make you feel loved.
Her quick wit and boundless energy was matched by the hugs and kisses she gave to those she loved.
We hope and pray to see that smile again and till that time we will keep her spirit close.

I am so very saddened to hear of BJ's passing. As a woman in the safety profession, we have had so few female role models but BJ was one of them. I had the pleasure of working with her at the National Safety Council and beyond. As many have said, we will miss her terribly her smile, her wit, her intellect, her passion for safety, ALWAYS willing to lend a helping hand on a project and to help others. We are thankful for all her tired less hard work for the field of safety. I will remember BJ as always so put together, a classy lady. I so enjoyed our many conversations while at the NSC, and afterwards as she helped build LoMastro and Associates many times they were about our furry kids. Now she'll be helping Joe Kelbus be one of our safety angles'. Our deepest sympathy to Bob and her family, you are in our thoughts and prayers.

I had the honor of being at NSC with BJ. She had a contagious smile and was passionate about the work she did for safety. I have fond memories of long talks and shared coffee breaks. My sympathies to Bob (who was in my new employee training back in '89) and all of BJ's family - keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. I hope knowing that she affected so many lives and that her memory lives on brings you comfort.

R.I. P. my dear Barbara Jean. One of the last true "Section Administrators" for the NSC. You made an impact on many lives and made many people safer. Your heart was always in the right place - wanting to help people. The NSC and the field of safety owes you a debt of gratitude. (THANK YOU!)
You also were great fun to work with and kept me out of trouble on more than one occasion :). THANK YOU !
May your soul rest in peace!

BJ was not only a supportive colleague but a great friend. During my time in the leadership of the B&I BJ helped to support me to make my life a heck a lot easier. BJ had a zest for safety and truly cared about all of us in the B&I. She had an infectious laugh and enjoyed what she did. The Council should be honored the years she worked for them.
My prayers go out to Bob and family.
